Speaker Level Calibration
Here you can adjust the level of each speaker with the
built-in test tone so that the volume of each speaker is the
same at the listening position.
Notes:
• The speakers cannot be calibrated while the output of
the AV receiver/AV amplifier is muted.
• The test tone is output at the standard level for THX,
which is 0 dB (absolute volume setting 82). If you nor-
mally listen at volume settings below this, be careful
because the test tone will be much louder.
Notes:
• This procedure can also be performed by using the
[TEST TONE] button, [LEVEL–] and [LEVEL+] but-
tons. First press the [TEST TONE] button to output
the test tone. Use the [LEVEL–] and [LEVEL+] but-
tons to set the volume, and use the [CH SEL] button to
select the speakers.
• This procedure can also be performed on the AV
receiver/AV amplifier by using its [SETUP] button,
arrow buttons, and [ENTER] button.
1 Press the [RECEIVER] button fol-
lowed by the [SETUP] button.
The main menu appears onscreen.
2 Use the Up and Down [ ]/[ ]
buttons to select “2. Speaker
Setup,” and then press [ENTER].
The Speaker Setup menu appears.
This setting is set automatically by the Automatic
Speaker Setup function (see page 54).
